sTATE oE TRACE.

(From Bradstreets OF Saturday, April 30.)
Special kilograms TO Bradstreets from leading
trade centers indicate moderate improvement
of general merchandise. At Philadelphia, Cinein-
nati, Louisville, Chicago, st. Louis, New Orleans
and San Francisco there have been gains over
week ago. The interior demand and the call for
staple goods at New Orleans, st. Louis and Chi
cago is marked. At San Francisco prices tend
upward on liberal transactions The distribution
of merchandise from Boston has been disturbed
because sof inability of railways to announce
freight rates, so that cost of delivery of goods
may be determined. Interviews with over 1900
leading shippers at "a cities indicate that like
delay In framing as well as in making down rates
has had much to do with the late disturbance of
trade. 1t is also learned that railways have been
and are making new, and, as stated more equita-
bic rates than were first announced, which goes
to relieve the situation.
The industrial situation is no more promising
than last week. Over 5000 coal miners are to
demand an advance, as well as 10000 iron and
steel workers, with strikes as alternatives.
The total bank clearings from thirty-seven cities
for six days ended with yesterday aggregated
$685. 7S3.s63. against 81, o55 5SS, 11S last week,
and as compared with $751; ,604 9e5 in the fourth
week of April 1886. This shows decline du-
ring the week of Se2,775, 900, or per cent, but
the weeks total is % per cent in excess of the
record year ago. The check to trade caused by
the new rail rates of late is now reflected in part
in the bank clearings.
1t is pointed out by Bradstreets that wheat and
-four exports, July last to date cover the ex-
portable surplus Of last crop, and that present
rate of exports, with home consumption, would, if
continued to July next wipe out the reserves
carried over last summer, if they were correctly
estimated. The drop" in wheat is due chiefly to
the cliques selling May and buying the deferred
deliveries. dis conceded that arrangements
with the carriers have been perfected to hold the
cereal through May and possibly June. so no
sensational Developments are looked for next
week
There is little new in iron or steel. AS a rule
prices are very firm, with makers busy. More
iron is going forward at the west.
Copper has dropped on sales OF about 20 oo0,-
600 pounds abroad several months supplies.
Culmet s. Hecla dropped points to 210. The
outlook is for another struggle between the Lake
and Motana copper kings for supremacy.

The Peoples Popular Price" combination
seems to be synonym for Deceitful Dog
goned Deadbeats for, as near as can be ascer-
tanned, they leave unpaid debts wherever
they go, and our town was no exception in
this regard, as no bills whatever were paid
here. They claim that Henry Trip of Ban
gor, was their treasurer and skipped with
their funds; and under this representation,
j. M. Longwell had him arrested for jumping
the board BILL The trial is set for Monday
next before Esquire Mason, but Trip claims
that he had advanced funds to help them out
of Benton Harbor, Hartford and Lawrence,
and was simply taking by agreement what
belonged TO him. It seems TO be rather "a
contradictory affair, and Trip was released
on his own recognzance.

The Diamond.

The Paw Paws played their return game
with the Lawtons last Friday afternoon, on
the latters grounds, and were defeated by
score OF twelve to seven. The game was
played without any trouble whatever. In
the first two innings Lee, who was in the
box, was hit quite freely, and this, together
with very bad fielding, allowed the home
club to place five scores to their credit, while
the visitors were promptly BANKED in both.
In the third, Briggs was placed in the box
and did some fine work, striking out nine men
during the remainder of the game. In the
six innings in which Briggs did the pitching,
seven scores were made on each side, and
both clubs played very fair game.
The features of the game were very fine
running catch by Allen in the second, fine
fielding of Warner III center, double play
by Love and Allard, and several other excel
lent plays by members of both clubs.
Juan McKeyes, who was watching the
game, was struck in the head by n batted
ball. 1t was hard Int but, fortunately. he
was not seriously injured
The score by innings was as follows:

The Bloomingdales will play game with
the Paw Paws at the fair ground in this place,
on Friday afternoon. The Bloomingdale
team is one of the best in the northern part
of the county, and this bids fair to be close
and interesting contest. Those who are
lovers of base ball sport will do we'll to place
the sum of fifteen cents in the hands of the
gentlemanly treasurer and witness this game.
